Cathy Liddicott
psychotherapist


I'm Cathy, a psychotherapist based in and around Leeds. I offer you a comfortable and supportive environment within which you can begin to get to the know the person you are, and, with that self-awareness, become the person you want to be.

"You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending"
-C.S. Lewis.

I believe that we all hold the key to our own recovery, whatever difficulty we are facing, no matter how big or small. As an integrative therapist, I am not wedded to working with any one therapeutic style; instead, I bring myself (which includes my training, my values, and my broader life experiences) to mould my approach to the individual client, and what they bring to therapy. I believe that the relationship created within the therapy is the key to the process and its effectiveness. I see my role as a compassionate observer in your life, working alongside you in therapy to uncover the possible roots of the challenges you are experiencing and the core beliefs you may hold.

Fees:
 £55
I offer a free 30 minute consultation for us to talk about what is going on for you, what therapy might involve, what you feel you need and whether we think we could work effectively together.
Let's start by talking and see where we can go from there

Hi, I’m Jane, a Solution Focused Hypnotherapist and psychotherapist.
I really enjoy what I do and that’s helping people using this research backed therapy. It uses elements of Neuroscience, NLP, CBT and brief therapy.
When we’re feeling down, frustrated or stuck in life it can be hard to know what to do to get back on track. 
Hypnotherapy can help you, by equipping you with knowledge and tools that help you get the best out of yourself, to cope better and enjoy life. 
It can install a sense of calm, something which is often hard to achieve in our busy lives.
We work together using knowledge of how the brain works and how we can rewire our brains to be positive and solution focused to help you achieve the changes you want to make.
Sessions are a positive space for concentrating mainly on the present and future, they are usually half talking therapy and half relaxation trance.

I can help with the following: 
Anxiety/Depression, Stress, Insomnia, IBS, Self Esteem/Confidence, Phobias/Fears, Stop Smoking/Vaping, Weight Management, OCD, 
Pain management, Sports performance/Peak performance, Fertility.
